I am looking to lap the base of my stock 9800 GTX cooler (eVGA) as well as the heat spreader for both the GPU and the memory modules. I was wondering if anybody could let me know if the architecture / method required is similar to a 9800 GT. I ask this because the 9800 GT is the only walkthrough I could find that closely matched my current card.

Also, any tips at all on doing this? I have heard that ceramic thermal paste is better for a GPU cooling solution than silver because it is less conductive. Any truth to this? Because I have had a tube of silver forever now and have used barely any of it...would be a shame to go out and buy some new paste for nothing.

Any help is appreciated...thank you.
